Willy Loman (Redux)
All of the strip mall signs
Shivered on in the predawn light
I felt just like David Byrne in a suit three times my size
You gave it all
For bonus pay and alcohol
Tie me to the tracks now
Never look back
I'll be whatever you need me to be
Weatherman says I'll be fine
You can chase down rainbows on somebody else's time
Shattered glass on the hotel floor
Sleeping in the shadow of the man I was before
Straighten your tie
Embrace the lie
You've got a job to do tonight
All of the warning signs
Spasm down my eroding spine
I feel just like an ingénue hanging on beyond my prime
I have it all
Happy Hour, suburban sprawl
Check me at the gate now
This is my fate
I'll be whatever you want me to be
Weatherman says I'll be fine
You can chase down rainbows on somebody else's time
Shattered glass on the hotel floor
Sleeping in the shadow of the man I was before
Spare me your sighs, commit the crime
We've got a job to do tonight
Suddenly I see it all
Polaroids down an endless hall
The only fire I feel is in my dreams
Feed me my lines, avert your eyes
I've got a job to do tonight
Shivered on in the predawn light
I felt just like David Byrne in a suit three times my size
You gave it all
For bonus pay and alcohol
Tie me to the tracks now
Never look back
I'll be whatever you need me to be
Weatherman says I'll be fine
You can chase down rainbows on somebody else's time
Shattered glass on the hotel floor
Sleeping in the shadow of the man I was before
Straighten your tie
Embrace the lie
You've got a job to do tonight
All of the warning signs
Spasm down my eroding spine
I feel just like an ingénue hanging on beyond my prime
I have it all
Happy Hour, suburban sprawl
Check me at the gate now
This is my fate
I'll be whatever you want me to be
Weatherman says I'll be fine
You can chase down rainbows on somebody else's time
Shattered glass on the hotel floor
Sleeping in the shadow of the man I was before
Spare me your sighs, commit the crime
We've got a job to do tonight
Suddenly I see it all
Polaroids down an endless hall
The only fire I feel is in my dreams
Feed me my lines, avert your eyes
I've got a job to do tonight
